    I built MY SITE: http://www.danscartoons.com, using FrontPage2002. I am attempting to paste this line of code:

    <div class="fb-like" data-href="http://www.danscartoons.com" data-send="false" data-layout="button_count" data-width="60" data-show-faces="false" data-font="verdana"></div>

    The LIKE button is not appearing - why? See that blank table (black borders) just above those hyperlinks GIFTS/BLOG on left of page? It is supposed to be there but isn't showing . . . the code was pasted in though(???????)

    It seems like you have forgot to add this code too to make the like button work.
    Paste the script below and your like button will start functioning.

    <div id="fb-root"></div>
    <script>(function(d, s, id) {
    var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
    if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
    js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
    js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1";
    fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
    }(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>

    dixcoder is right, but if what he suggested didn't help, try iframes, you usually can't go wrong with that.

    If you're not engaging the Facebook API for anything other than building a Like button, then just use the iFrame method - it's a fool-proof method.
